Shamim & Bill (Saranac Lake, NY)

Currently, they are both members of The Allens while Bill also plays mandolin with the bands High on the Hog and Slough Creek with Shamim singing and playing guitar in Dust Bunnies and The Lucinda Project. Together they present Shamim’s songwriting with the accompaniment of guitar, mandolin and
mandola.
The Scuttlemen (Malone, NY)
The alter ego duo of songwriters and musicians Jonathan Foster and Jon O’Connell who for the past year have mixed both American and Irish acoustic roots music into crowd pleasing form.
“Jonathan Foster and Jon O’Connell brought a great Americana/acoustic vibe to 20 Main. Jonathan’s songs and stories pulled everyone in, and Jon’s playing really added something special. The whole set had folks smiling, singing along & wanting more. We’re excited to have them back!” — 20 Main, AuSable Forks, NY
